MiTS gives a test for wacher spirits finding a person as some sort of Intelligence vs a flat TN. All in all, watchers are VERY good at finding people, the only problem being their short lifespan. But if you use materials to make a watcher that lasts weeks instead of hours...

Now my problem is that my runners are in Morrocco (north africa) while their target is in South Africa... I find it a bit hard to believe they can just summon a watcher and find her that easily. Isn't there some sort of maximal range??
